Re: How do I catch errors with Apache::Upload

[prev] [thread] [next] [Date index for 2005/04/05]

I can't seem to get that working, best as I try.

Does anyone have other suggestions?

My main problem right now, is that if I upload 'nothing', i get an 
error of the sort:
   can't find Content-Type header

According to the mp1 docs/examples:

	$upload = $apr->upload('fieldname')
	if (!$upload)
	{
		# no upload
	}
	else
	{
		# yay upload
	}

I'm probably interpreting this wrong, but according to the MP2 docs :

	$upload = $apr->upload('fieldname')
	if ( (ref $upload) eq 'Apache::Upload::Error'  )
	{
		# no upload
	}
	else
	{
		# yay upload
	}

Which might work... but in the case that you have a  file upload, and 
click the  file button -- but don't select a file, $upload seems to 
stay a valid upload object -- but performing any Apache::Upload method 
on it causes a 500 error

Anyone else with a suggestion?  This is killing me.
